The reporters of these test1 kernel problems should attempt to duplicate the issues with test2 and report back. Lets face it.. the kernel gets a lot of bugreports thats intimately hardware specific, affect hardware the fedora developer might not have access to.. but upstream developers might be aware of and working on. > I did a query on fc3 test 1-3 bugs, there are still 425 bugs: Out of those 425.. how many are now in the modified state indicating that a developer has worked on it and thinks the issue is fixed? how many are in the need info state meaning the developer needs someone to provide more information to make headway on the report? how many are in the assigned state where the developer is working on the problem? out of the remaining new or reopened.. how many of those are actually requests for enhancements instead of a serious crasher or inoperable bug? > Ignoring the bug reports doesn't motivate testers very much... No one sane is going to suggest that there is enough skilled manpower right now to follow up on each individual bugreport AND get things actually fixed. But I don't think its fair to say that people are actively ignoring bug reports. Let's talk numbers. I get a total of 1602 bug against fc3t1-3 i get a total of 320 assigned/new/reopened against fc3t1-3 Those numbers don't tell me that developers are trying to ignore anyone, those numbers tell me the system is overwhelmed. -jef
